Tips for removing axle keys?
Want to lap the hub to the axle and I tried a few things (Tapping screw driving under it and tapping one end to get the other to lift) to get the axle key out of the axle, but it didn't get it out. I didn't want to get to aggressive until I searched here.
Any tips/tricks that worked for you? |

Tried grabbing it with Vise grips? Just tapping in inboard should get some movement. Or prying it outboard from the axle tube end.

Try tapping it back and up at the same time with a center punch.
